"Look," I say. "I need to find the entrancees that they use to let in the animals. The basic design of the building won't change, so as long as we find those we should be able to get out. We have to do it before they notice though. Try to avoid security cameras."

She nodds. "I'll take the east side of the arena, you take the west." She starts to run, feeling her hand along the wall.

I run to, trying to find grooves in the metal. We only had a small amount of time, and I had to be careful.

My hand bumped along a groove in the metal. Breathing excitedly I stop and look more closely. I could just make out the vauge outline of a small door, about three by four feet. I start to run my hands along the lines, trying to find an activation hatch.

I stop and turn around, then yell as loud as I can. Hopefully Eliza would hear it and come.

I turn back to the door, staring at it hard. Finally I notice a small peice of metal sticking out in the bottom right corner. I bend down and pull it, feeling it slide out of the slot that held it.

I felt the door rumble, and I stepped back. I watched as it popped outward and slid to the side, revealing a dark passageway.

I smiled. I had found our way out of here. 

Addilon/Tuera~

Silently, I logged off the computer. I turned to look at Prism, but she's standing right behind me.

"Ready to go?" She asked. Her voice was steady, but silver tears glistened in her eyes. I nodded, not trusting my own voice. Silently, we walked out of the computer center. On our way back to the dorm, I heard noises coming from inside a room labeled simply "A."

"Prism? What's this room for?" I asked. Prism replied nonchalantly.

"Oh, that's the Arena. Why?"

"Because I hear voices." Prism froze and backtracked, looking at me. She slowly pressed her ear to the wall. Her eyes grew wide.

"They must be right behind this tree," She muttered, putting her hand on the doorknob.

"What tree? Who is it?!" I asked frantically.

"You know those students point their guns at Alexandria?" I nodded.

Prism went white. "They're in there."

Prism F.~

Addilon gasped and I ignored her. Eliz@ and Keavin were my partial friends. We had both been roommates at some point, before they wanted to transfer. A selfish person would leave them there, saying they were "paying for their actions." But I, dear reader, am NOT a selfish person. I began looking for the door.

"We have to get them out of there!" I hissed. Why wasn't Addilon doing anything?! I spun around to face her. She was looking out the window, into the Arena, her face pale.

She pointed shakily. "I think it's too late." Keavin and Eliza were circling each other.

"No...no!" I cried, pounding on the glass. It didn't give. Of course it didn't! What was I, an idiot? The trees cleared slightly from the window as Addilon and I watched on in horror.

Well, Keavin and Eliza, up to you what happens next. But whatever happens, if someone dies, Prism will be DEVESTATED. And she and Addilon will be waiting for whoever escapes. :) 

Hello? I was told I would be met here...

"I can't hide anymore," I hiss. "Let me go out and stretch my legs!"

"Are you crazy?" Shadow whispers. "They know we're out there."

I bend my ears back, listening.

"Nothing," I reply.

Shadow hesitates. "Fine. Be back as soon as possible."

I nod and walk out of the closet.

I seem to be in a hallway, and beside me is a vacant room. I walk in, discovering a computer room of some sort.

I go over to a screen that is still lit up, curious, and look.

Press close or computer will automatically shut down in 30 seconds.

I click close, and it goes to a record of a sort.

I begin to read it, my eyes growing wide, and when I finish, I'm frozen in shock.

How?

I stagger back to the closet and slip in.

"What's wrong with you? You look like someone just shocked you with a taser," Shadow jokes.

I stay silent. "It felt like it."

"What?" Shadow asks, noticing something is wrong. "What happened?" 

I turn to her, thinking of how to say it. "Shadow, you're not going to like this, and you may not belive me."

She shifts. "What? Tell me."

"But-"

"Try me," she interrupts.

I hesitate. How am I going to tell her?

"Mina...?"

"Shadow," I say. "This is going to hit home real hard." 

I am running now, Eliza behind me. I can feel the outside, it is just beyond my fingertips. The tunnel must end soon, and then we would be in the holding corrals for the animals. After that it was only a short way to the forest.

I see a light at the end of the tunnel and slow. I didn't know if there were still animals in the pens, and if so we would need to be careful.

I signal for Eliza to slow down and we walk out of the tunnel, keeping to the side. The pens look deserted, but just to be careful we run along the outside.

Eliza pulls ahead of me and vaults the fence, disappearing over the other side. I follow, landing softly on the ground beside her.

"I think the outside wall is over there," she whispered, pointing to a dark blob. The semi-darkness blurred everthing, so it was hard to see defininte shapes. We run over and start to climb.

We reach the top and look down over the forest. It was so huge, expanding into the distance. I feel euphoria well up inside me. This was it. I was finally free.

"Eliza," I say.

"Yes?"

"I think I might cry."

"Go ahead. I won't laugh," she says breathlessly. And with that we begin to climb down. 

My ears ring as I wake up to a blinding light. They stop ringing, and I realize where I am. I am once again in the doctor's room. What was it for... Oh yeah. The poison in my leg. 

I suddenely jerk up and thump back down, groaning. I have a splitting headache.

The doctor comes up to me. "What was that?"

"Did you chop my leg off?" I ask pitifully.

The doctor laughs quietly. "No, dear, I did not. Simply treated it."

"Why does my head hurt?" I blurt. The medicine must still have an effect on me.

"You passed out," she replies.

"Poison?" I ask.

She sighs. "Yes, I'm afraid. But it should be alright now."

I nod my head in my pillow. "Can I get up? I need to go to the bathroom."

She nods.

I stand and walk to the restroom in the room, and when I come out, I inspect myself in the mirror.

The same blue-gray eyes and blonde hair. But there's something odd. The way my facial features are, the way my face is shaped- it looks like someone I know.

I shrug to myself and walk back into the room, where the doctor is looking at my vitals. She has my blood sample in her hand. Probably to check for poison.

Right as I sit back down on my bed, Poe Allen walks in.

"You called?" he asks the doctor.

The doctor briefly glances back at me and nods.

They whisper in the corner.

"Same blood type...same analysis...."

Poe Allen nods and clears his throat, walking out of the room.

"What was that?" I ask.

"What? Oh, nothing dear," the doctor responds.

Odd. Something is off. 

Guys! shadow and Mina are in danger we Need to send backup!

(also my capthca almost said the f word) 

Shadow looks at me and laughs. 

"Haha, very funny, just tell me what's really going on."

I look at her seriously, and all lightness disapears from her face.

"You're not joking."

I shake my head, and I motion for her to follow me out of the closet.

We walk into the vacant computer room, where the file is still up.

Shadow scans it, looking in unbelief.

"S-so what, she has the same last name, the same brother, maybe- maybe she has a sister like me," she sputters. She looks like she might cry.

"Shadow," I say. "This is real. Alexandria- she's your sister."
